Nice video tidy! Quick question, do you have any ideas how you might repair the corner of a porcelain tile that’s chipped off? Not bothered about a perfect colour match and I really don’t want to remove from middle and re-lay!
Hi Tidy Bricks, great test! One question: How does the base, thickness and material need to be for cars to drive on porcelain pavers? Thickness and traction for tiles is an important factor I like to look for. Thanks for the videos
I’ve acted done a video on that a few years,ago and I put in a reinforced concrete base along with type 1 mot take a look ua-cam.com/video/4HucqCZKV6o/v-deo.htmlsi=MQ-od0XKOUJr2f6b 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping awesome, I liked the video! Thank you! I think fiberglass rebar is the best option nowadays because steel rebar rusts eventually and explodes concrete when it expands in rusting. I enjoy your videos, thank you, take care.
Interesting test. It seems that the professional garden design industry are avoiding using porcelain due to the massive enviromental costs when they are made. A least they will break up nicely when we come to replace them!
Scot I guess it's like any thing that's related to the nail it's not always the size of the hammer 😂. 🍻 as always a great watch and quite simple for all the simple ones out there . 👍
So basically really Scott we shudnt drop a sledgehammer on the tile lol good vid though very useful and sometimes I suppose it don’t pay to buy the premium
Don’t the more expensive tiles have the same colour all the way through - ie exposed cut edges will look similar to the top, whereas the cheaper ones have different coloured layers in through the core?
Actually good question and to answer that is yes hopefully that would be true but actually not it’s quite hard to find any companies that have the same colour all the way through. Only place I’ve seen so far is mandarin stone that’s full body 👍🏴
No, the difference is the cleaning cheap tiles stain easily. Indian made Italian porcelain is crap. buy the real deal vitripiazza made in Italy they grout easily, clean easily chip resistant edges and better designed. Don't be tempted with the cheap 3x2s you'll regret it
As usual cost is no indicator of qualty/utility. Will you be reimbursing all the customers who took your recommendation to buy the dearer one's....??? 😂😂😂

Have a look for broad landscapes on Facebook he’s the man for those fixes 👍🏴
Interesting. Well done. Would you consider experimenting with flowpoint? Brush in dry, sweep up excess, then water?
Keep the videos coming👍
That’s possible yes a bit like a video I did not long ago using steintec grout same procedure 👍🏴
Interesting experiment.thanks for doing this. Nice suit Scott. Glad to see your mobility after the op is much better.
Cheers Pete yeh ankles getting better but still ackes like a bitch still glad you liked the experiment 👍👍

Tidy experiment 💪🏻🏴
It’s good to know all the factors I guess 👍🏴
Love the Haz suit, very becoming!Test inconclusive but save the money 👍😎😀
Agreed! Screw the premium off it’s double bubble 👍🏴
Looked like they both were cracked to start with. Then realised my tablet screen was cracked
😂 👍🏴

Environmental costs well not sure about that if you want something then have it the Uk footprint for anything is very very small 👍🏴

Very true 👍🏴 any other ones I could test ?

Yeh try not to drop any sledges seems to be worth noting lol and yeh maybe it’s not worth paying over the top 👍🏴

I have always said the same thing in regards to sbr
It’s does the job when mixed with cement 👍🏴

3x2’s sometimes have bends in them that’s something I’ll never miss no I’ve stopped laying 👍🏴
Not much between them.
Nope pretty dam similar really hope it helped 👍🏴

I might be getting a few phone calls coming up complaining hopefully not 👍🏴
Obviously new evidence and recommendation(s) updated accordingly 😎
